Benimaru: How many dead and wounded?
Rigurd: So far, we have almost a hundred dead, and more have been wounded, but Falmuth's army seem to have last more then us. In total, they lost seemingly around three hundred at a minimum, not counting some like the templar knights from the church. And while we have suffered quite a bit, things could've easily gotten far worse...
Benimaru: Yes, far worse indeed...
He glanced over at Onyx and Ruby who were standing nearby to watch the scene.
Benimaru: Who are you people?
The woman stepped up to introduce herself first.
Ruby: I am Ruby, one of three knights who serve our master, Lord Blake.
She flipped a thumb back at the man behind her.
Ruby: This is Onyx, another of the three knights under Lord Blake's command.
Benimaru: Three knights? I've haven't heard of my master having any subordinates under such names.
Ruby: It wouldn't be surprising. We haven't walked this world in over a hundred years or so. But, after so long, our master has finally called us back, and we are here to serve him again.
Rigurd: You mentioned three knights? But, where's your last companion?
Ruby: Mica mentioned something about finding one of the suspects behind this attack who were in the city. He should be return-
She then stopped as the the sounds of wings flapping was heard, and several people turned to see Rimuru flying down past the barrier and running into the city with Souei, Gabiru, and the others quickly following behind him.
Everyone: Lord Rimuru!
They watched as Rimuru landed and looked around the damaged buildings with a look of utter panic and horror on his face.
When he arrived, the first thing Benimaru and Rigurd instantly noticed was that his hair seemed a bit disheveled and his eyes seem to have subtle black rings underneath them, both indicating something bad had happened that deeply troubled him.
His overall demeanor did not look good at all and it made them worried. But before they could inquire, Rimuru spoke with clear distress in his voice:
Rimuru: W-What happened?!
Rigurd: Lord Rimuru! Thank goodness your safe!
Benimaru and Rigurd knelt before him.
Rimuru: I'm sorry to worry you guys, but what happened?!
Benimaru: ...An attack.
Rimuru: What?! Who attacked-
Suddenly, the ground shook as a powerful shockwave was felt throughout the city.
Rigurd: That power...
Rimuru: What was that?!
Ruby: It was Mica.
Rimuru turned to the two figures standing before him, both glancing the direction of the shockwave.
Rimuru: Who are you two?!
Ruby: We'll explain later. But right now, if you wanna catch one of the culprits responsible for this, then I suggest we run over to stop Mica before he kills them.
Meanwhile, Geld and the several Orc soldiers were watching the white haired man try to apprehend the woman who created one of the barriers. But Youm and Grucius came to protect this girl and tried to stop him, but it resulted in Grucius barely standing and Youm being knocked unconscious.
